Chapter 258: Attack at the same time!
"Hay! The general is wise and powerful, and he is well commanded, and he will definitely be able to wipe out the Zhina Reading Army in one fell swoop. Nanzao Yunzi hurriedly lowered his head and patted his ass.
……………………… Jingcheng County, the headquarters of the First Division.
"Junzuo, according to the report of the guard battalion, the devils in Shimen City did not take the opportunity to escape, but chose to defend on the spot, and the Zhengding army did not escape, the situation is the same as Shimen. Now the guard battalion is looking for an opportunity to break through the city. Liu Cheng walked in with a heavy face.
The devil didn't run away, which was obviously beyond Liu Cheng's expectations, so Liu Cheng's face was a little ugly.
And Zhang Mingyu said: "It seems that the devil's confidence has not been broken!" They are trying to put up a stubborn resistance! Command! The regiments immediately launched an attack on Shimen! The guard battalion launched an attack on Zhengding at the same time, and in one fell swoop, those Zhengding and Shimen! ”
"Yes!" Liu Cheng happily took the order and left.
…………………… Under the city of Zhengding, the three infantry companies of the guard battalion had all seized all the positions on the periphery of Zhengding, and a large group of troops was forced to retreat to the city.
The third company was responsible for the siege of Zhengding West Gate, which was located at the railway station, where the devils deployed an infantry squadron and a company of puppet troops in an attempt to resist stubbornly.
Wang Hanshan, commander of the third company, was standing in the temporary command post of the former enemy, and at this time the cramped command post was crowded with people, and a company of the guard battalion had six infantry platoons, a grenadier mortar platoon, and a machine gun platoon.
More than a dozen squad and platoon commanders and Wang Hanshan stood around a table made of ammunition boxes in the command headquarters, on which were impressively military maps.
Wang Hanshan looked at the people around him, pointed to the map on the table, and said: "Brothers, the order from above is to let my guard battalion take Zhengding at all costs, and the time given to us by the camp is to take the west gate and the railway station before dark, and it is now half past eleven at noon, which means that we still have at least six hours." ”
"Company commander, in six hours, we can ensure that we can take the railway station and the West Gate, you can give the order, how can we fight this battle." A platoon commander patted his chest and said coaxingly.
"That's right! Just give the order! Everyone urged.
"Good! You see, the train station is two kilometers away from the West Gate, so I decided to hit the train station first, and then hit the West Gate. Wang Hanshan pointed to the map.
Wang Hanshan said this, and said: "Next, I announce this combat mission, 1 to 3 platoons feint to attack the west gate, remember that it is a feint, as long as the scared devils dare not go out of the city to reinforce the railway station, don't give me a real fight, after taking the railway station, concentrate forces to attack the city gate!" The fourth to sixth platoons mainly attacked the railway station, and the artillery platoon and machine gun platoon fully assisted! Fight to take the train station in one fell swoop! ”
"Yes!" Everyone agreed with a bang, and then scattered one after another.
Fifteen minutes later, in the forward trenches.
Xu Wen, who was already the leader of the fourth platoon, supported the frame on the bridge of his nose with his left hand, and then picked up the telescope hanging around his neck with a focused expression and looked at the train station in front of him.
At this time, each row had already excavated to less than 500 meters away from the railway station, and Xu Wen's fourth row had already advanced to the front position of less than 400 meters.
In the entire trench, except for Xu Wen, who was peeping at the enemy with a telescope, the other soldiers were all bowing their heads or lying on their stomachs or sitting in the trenches.
After all, this place is too close to the little devil, it is already within the range of the devil's machine gun, the little devil's sharpshooter and pistol skills are not bad, Rao is these veterans are not afraid of death, but no one wants to touch this moldy head, in case it shows up, and the devil's figure is shot in the head before he sees it, then it will be a big loss.
Even if you die, you have to pull a few little devils as backs, this is the common voice of these iron-blooded veterans.
Nowadays, the civil engineering industry has been popularized to all junior officers, and even some veterans who are a little older in the military know that the important surname of the civil engineering industry.
The 3rd Company did not launch a fierce attack at a distance of 2,000 meters, but advanced by means of earthwork, which greatly shortened the attack distance and effectively reduced the casualties of the infantry.
Although a small number of artillery tried to stop the devils during the excavation, in addition to digging the trenches dug by the soldiers in a zigzag line, the trenches themselves were also dug narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, and the damage caused by the devil's small-caliber curved guns (mortars, grenadiers) to the soldiers was really limited.
And the devils guarding the railway station only had two infantry squads, and their troops were already stretched, so the devils did not send troops to attack.
In this way, the platoons responsible for the main attack smoothly dug to the periphery of the railway station, and Xu Wen even asked the soldiers to dig the trench all the way forward more than 200 meters, not that Xu Wen was stupid, but Xu Wen's move was really smart, and he was born in the infantry He deeply understood that the closer the attack site was to the target, the enemy's firepower would be greatly reduced, which would save the lives of more soldiers on his side.
It turns out that the earthwork of Sanlian played a key role.
A moment later, Wang Hanshan received a report that the platoons had been prepared, and he quickly shook the telephone and dialed the phone of the guard battalion: "Hey! I am Wang Hanshan of the Third Company, and I ask for artillery support from the battalion headquarters! ”
Not long after, a cloud of flames flew over Xu Wen and the others, dragging a long tail flame and smashing down into the fortifications of the devils at the railway station.
The area of the railway station was not large, and the artillery of the guard battalion was a veteran of a hundred battles, so the accuracy was quite high, and in the first round of shelling, at least three devil machine gun fire points were blown over, and heavy machine guns and machine gunners flew into the sky along with the firelight.
"I .......... it"
In the words of these veterans themselves, if they did not listen to the sound of artillery for two days, their ears would grow, and the deafening explosion not only did not frighten them, but could arouse their monstrous fighting spirit, which could be seen from their eyes.
Every veteran waits quietly, waiting for the end of the shelling, and immediately rushes up to fight the enemy, like a wolf, keeping an eye on its prey, and will rush up to tear it apart and devour it at the first opportunity.
Finally, after a series of explosions, the company trumpeter blew the trumpet, the trumpet was an order, and almost at the same time, the soldiers of the three platoons jumped out of the trench with their commander, and then rushed forward with their guns in hand.
"Da ......."
The remaining machine-gun fire points of the devils began to fire one after another, and tongues of fire flew out of the seemingly ruined fortifications, and other devil infantry also fired sporadic bullets intermittently.
The soldiers of the three platoons shouted in unison, the guys in their hands kept firing back, and in front of the train station, sporadic sparks flew back and forth, and dazzling tongues of fire were sprayed crosswise.
The soldiers braved the dense rain of bullets, bent their waists, and moved forward quickly and sensitively in a zigzag shape, and one person fell, and immediately two or three people continued to follow and advance forward.
Wang Hanshan saw through the telescope that the attack was blocked, and shouted to the herald beside him: "Order the machine gun platoon to fire to suppress the enemy's machine guns, and the artillery platoon will blow up those heavy machine gun fortifications for me!" ”
"Yes!" The herald shouted in agreement, and then quickly turned and left.
After the three soldiers who rushed in front of Xu Wen dodged several fire blockades in a row, they suddenly stretched out a black hole muzzle from an inconspicuous ruin, and a crooked handle "Da Da Da..." spewed out a tongue of evil fire.
The three leading soldiers were immediately shot and fell to the ground, Xu Wen immediately lay down in a crater with a forward lunge, and a dense burst of bullets that followed almost flew past his scalp and hit a soldier who followed up.
Xu Wen didn't have time to grieve, he immediately made a gesture to the soldiers who continued to follow up behind him to stop advancing and lie down on the spot.
After the fighters behind understood, they all looked for cover and lay down on the spot.
Even as the bullets whizzed overhead, they didn't move a single bit. Xu Wen put the submachine gun in his hand aside, then untied two grenades from his waist, unscrewed the back cover, and then signaled to several fighters not far behind, and several soldiers nodded and reached out to touch their waists.
Soon, several fighters gave Xu Wen a thumbs up, Xu Wen nodded, and then made a three, two, one with his fingers: "Go!" He slammed the grenade in his hand and threw two smoke-emitting grenades at the roaring devil machine gun.
Almost at the same time, several fighters not far behind Xu Wen also pulled out their grenades and threw them at the devil's machine gun position.
Immediately afterward, "Boom knock..." Several explosions sounded in vain, and the crooked machine gun, which was still roaring and spitting out tongues of fire just now, was suddenly blown into the sky.
"Brothers, rush!" Xu Wen turned around and jumped out of the crater, and the submachine gun in his hand swept at the front.
The fighters behind also jumped up one after another, and the machine gunners held the machine guns, and carried out fierce strafing fire in a "sudden and sudden ......", as if they were about to exhaust the evil breath that had just been suppressed.
Soon, under the absolute and absolute suppression of troops, each platoon has made substantial progress, and the two devil squads in the railway station have suffered more than half of the casualties, and the remaining devils retreat to the core of the railway station to continue to resist stubbornly.
………………… Zhengding County.
The captain of the castle defense was named Akiganjiro, who had just returned to the brigade headquarters from inspecting the battle situation at the east gate.
Deputy Captain Takema Xiaoji reported to Ming Kanjiro with a heavy face: "Your Excellency, the Captain, the people of China have begun to storm the railway station, and Second Lieutenant Kobayashi has requested urgent tactical guidance!" ”
Instead of speaking, Akiganjiro walked into the headquarters and sat down on a chair with a backrest, at this time he couldn't understand why the headquarters had made such a stupid decision to fight the people of China to the end without sending reinforcements.
Although he knew that the orders of the headquarters were inappropriate, Akiganjiro, as a soldier, still carried them out resolutely.
A trace of grief flashed in his eyes, but then he was replaced by coldness, and Sen Ran said: "Order Second Lieutenant Kobayashi to lead his troops and the people of China to fight to the last soldier!" Don't retreat without permission! ”
Zhu Ma Xiaoer said awe-inspiringly: "Hai! Then he turned and walked away.
